Chasing Chased

Chapter I

When Black closed her novel and looked at the alarm clock
that looked like a Mickey Mouse, it showed that it was two o’ clock. She put
the book on the table beside the clock, along with the zero powered glass,
which helped her eye stains. She stretched
her sleepy and bulky form on the single bunk of a bed, and then rubbed her
eyes, as if it would remove the ache and strain. Then she slowly settled on her
bed, and said a quick prayer to keep off the bad dreams and then closed her
eyes. She had been so tired that she was hoping that no dream would evade her
sleep, but it did none the less.

It looked as if Black
was on a road, and she had been walking for a long time. The place was
deserted, and the heat seemed scorching, and there was no one, not even a
strayed dog at sight. She had a bag, a big one on her back, and she looked so
very exhausted. Her feet seemed to ache a lot, and she felt that shewould collapse. She saw a big milestone like
thing, where there was something written,but it seemed that she could not decipher it. It was not that high, so
she sat on it, and opened her sneakers to check something. There were blisters,
the size of cherries, and it looked so bad that it had soaked her socks with
crimson blood.

She felt the pain by
looking at them, but did not know what to do. She was in the middle of nowhere,
and the sun was over her head, and something, like an invisible pull, the power
and strength of it had been so immensely strong that it did not let her go. She
somehow, as if a magic of the dream gave her strength, she wore her socks and
sneakers, without flinching, and then got off again.

When Black looked in
front of her, at the end of the road, or lane, whatever she thought to say at
times, it looked like something of an end, and it was pulling Rachael with
tremendous force that could not be fathomed.

Then suddenly, the
scene changed, and it looked as if it had been a smoke of a scene, like
those of Alice in Wonderland, then it
was evening, and she was on the top of a skyscraper of a building, but looked
as a neglected one, that Black saw in Ghost Adventures. There was no escape
path, and no stairs to climb down the building. The only way was to jump off
the ceiling, and it was crazy.

Black had height
phobia, so much that she started shaking even by seeing from the second floor
of anywhere. But she just got her wits together, and then went to see what was
down the place. She started inching towards the railings, and as soon as she
got close to the railing, she heard something at her back. She turned
instantly, and she did not know how, but the railings and the floor collapsed,
and she fell along with the concrete.

She tried to scream,
but no sounds came out. She perhaps saw a dark silhouette figure of someone
standing there, but wasn’t sure, and tried to grab unnecessarily, as if she
wanted to catch the air to save herself, but to no avail.

She felt that she had
been falling and falling, but the most astounding thing was, she felt that she
could not come out of the dream. Just when she felt that she was about to touch
the ground and scatter to pieces, she somehow heard a loud shrilling noise from
somewhere.

Black suddenly opened her eyes, and found that her hands
were crisscrossed in front of her, as if protecting herself from the impact of
falling, no matter how futile an attempt that would be to save herself from
something so fictitious. Her clothes, bed sheets, and her pillow were drenched
in sweat, and her cheeks were wet, from both tears and perspiration. Then she
turned the shrilling alarm off with a little force than necessary.

She pinched her matted curls off her forehead, where it was
plastered with sweat. Then she kept herself on the bed a few more minutes to
settle herself and get over the shock of the dream. Then Black glanced at the clock that said 6:06
a.m.

Perhaps
it was now time to get off from bed, Black
thought with some grumpiness and slowly got off from her bed.

I was intrigued from the second I started reading, and it kept my interest the whole way through. Chelsea has a way with words that will enchant you until the very end. She is very poetic with the way she mixes genres and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The main character is also very relat...

Alice Liu:
Whoa! I've been wondering how would the Maurauders react to Harry's life and here we go! YOU ARE THE BEST! All the characters are consistent with their personalities shown in the book! I love how you compare Lily with Molly and it's definitely true for her being a mother! I wish Peter comes have ...

Charlie_8472:
Recommended to me by a friend, I thought I'd give this a read. As a hobbyist blacksmith, the blurb certainly caught my attention. I found the sentence about them drinking, dancing and fighting a strange combination of activities, perhaps a reflection of the writer’s personality and humour. Howeve...

PurpleInkling:
Hippocrite is spelt hypocrite.Also it is an awesome story! A good one after so long. I was hoping someone would write a good fanficiton playing off what Ron said at the station. You are doing a remarkable job. It would have been interesting if Albus had also ended up in Ravenclaw though that mig...

John Reed:
Seadrias masterfully captures the impressiveness and complex scope that a science fiction novel should provide while carefully crafting an entire universe that will leave a reader in awe from start to finish. The only flaw I could find is that I wish I could have read more. This book is certainly...

Hudson:
Your story was fantastic Erin! The Rising Sun was one of the first stories I read on Inkitt, and I have to say I don't regret the three to four days I spent pouring through the story.Probably the biggest strength I see in your writing is your characterisation of Eliana, Oriens, and the rest of th...

MegaRogueLegend666:
I love this story so much. It's impossible to describe my excitement with each new chapter in words. The author has such a good writing style, very good descriptions of the fighting and character descriptions/emotions. the plot is also amazing! This fanfic could be a side anime show or novel ......

Nate_L:
This story is amazing. The style, the description, it all drags you in. The characters are mostly the well known characters from King Arthur. There's Merlin, the sword: Excalibur. I recommend reading this through, at least a little, as it's a very satisfying read. I added it to my reading list af...

Elizabeth Robbins:
4.5 starsAs far as apocalypse stories go, this one took a new direction. I'm glad someone finally addressed the need for a vampire apocalypse! This is sort of a multi-genre festival of delights. With hints of forced societies, vamps, hunters, romance, apocalypse, government conspiracy, and thrill...

ga1984:
I really enjoyed it! Characters were deep and plot was pretty complex. A bit on the violent side but it doesnt detract from the story. Very dark but situations make sense. Ends kinda abruptly and later chapters will need some editing work. I'm assuming there's more in the works?

Nymeria:
Really can't get enough of this story. It flows well, it captivates the reader from page 1, and throws you into such a well-written, well conceptualized world that you'll believe it's real. Everything in the book is meshed together really well. From character backgrounds to plot twists, you can t...

Alex Rushmer:
This was not what I expected, but I enjoyed it a lot Malfoy was always one of the characters that I liked a lot, so I like that a lot of this happens between him and Colette. I read the first couple chapters, and I enjoyed your writing style and am excited to see where you take this story. My com...

Jordan Young:
*ALERT FOR POSSIBLE SPOILERS* Where to start? I don't know how to sum up this review, this story was absolutely sensational. Brilliant. Flawless. I loved every single bit of this story, it is truly amazing. I read this story in fifteen hours, it is magnificent. I loved everything about it, the p...

Barbara Ponder:
This book is aimed at teenagers, however the style and content caught my attention and it is a long time since I was a teenager. Intriguing and enlightening novel I hope there will be a sequel soon.
